Linnea Borer, LICSW

Linnea Borer is a Minnesota-licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common life stresses and emotional struggles, including anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, trauma and abuse, and anger. Linnea presents a straightforward approach that treats clients as the experts on their own lives.

Linnea emphasizes practical conversations about what is happening now. She listens for patterns that cause recurring anger or frustration and helps people notice how those patterns affect their relationships. Sessions often involve looking at thoughts, behaviors, and the stories people tell about themselves to find small, useful shifts.

Her clinical tools include cognitive behavioral strategies to test unhelpful thinking, attachment-based ideas to examine relationship patterns, and motivational interviewing to clarify what change looks like. She also uses narrative and solution-focused techniques to highlight strengths and past successes.

Linnea aims for concrete steps clients can try between sessions. That might mean short behavioral experiments, communication practice, or reorganizing daily routines to reduce stress. She frames work as collaborative problem solving rather than a one-size-fits-all program.

People who reach out to Linnea often want to manage anger that shows up at work or home, reduce anxiety, or rebuild after loss. She works in English and practices in Minnesota as an LICSW. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and scheduling flow to arrange a first session.
